From Booklist
This oversize, spectacularly lovely book will find its audience among garden enthusiasts and devoted travelers. Both groups will be thrilled that it extends a rare opportunity to gaze at what most people ordinarily cannot see over the Buckingham Palace walls--unless, of course, they have been invited to a royal garden party! The private garden behind the palace, walled away from public view for 150 years now, stretches for 39 pastoral acres and offers the queen and her family an amazingly quiet place of respite in the middle of one of the world's most bustling cities. Brown's enthusiastic, authoritative text appears in tandem with luscious photographs commissioned for inclusion here from well-known British photographer Christopher Simon Sykes, who took shots of the grounds in all four seasons. Additional illustrations are provided in the form of old photographs, sketches and drawings, and watercolor and oil paintings, all of which provide a striking history of the garden, set within the context of the story of Buckingham Palace itself, as well as the pageant of monarchs who have resided there since its purchase as a royal residence in the reign of George III.
